I had a drag out fight with my VA doctors and Dietician a number of months back and fought for an Adkins diet, and they kept refusing me, and insisting that I keep on the high carb diet. I started on a high protien-low carb diet, without their permission, and in fact against their orders, and my blood sugar has now dropped 100 points, my blood pressure has dropped much nearer normal, I have dropped about 25 lbs, my HA1c smac tests have dropped by 3 points, and I am feeling so much better it is amazing. And all without being hungry.

Hi Bob, I haven't seen you in a long time. I am so glad you are doing better. I don't think my husband has discussed diets with the Dr. he has now. All they discuss is taking more medicine. I don't think Drs.want their patients to remain sick so they will have more business & make more money like some here do. There is no shortage of sick & injured people. The top Drs. in their field might take months to get into see.
